That’s one thing na nakaka-amaze sa Panginoon. Though things are not fine, kahit na hindi natin maintindihan ang mga nangyayari, sigurado tayo na alam nya every moment. Di’ba nga, El Olam, Alpha and Omega, The Eternal One sya.

Just think about it, even before the foundation of the world, alam na nya na magsisimula akong mag-compose ng message at 7:22 AM, May 6, 2009, Wednesday with the subject line “Trusting God was RE: [ - Sower Ako c",) - ] New file uploaded to Sower_ANFGM_Dubai”. And at some point after that, alam nya kung sino ang magre-respond, alam nya rin kung sino ang magbabasa lang.

Alam nya rin kung ilan ang bilang ng buhok mo as stated in Matthew 10:30. I mean, who cares, right? Isipin mo ang lahat ng taong nagmamahal sa’yo — yung talagang mahal ka. Meron kaya sa kanila na mag-aaksaya ng oras para bilangin lang ang hair strands mo? Kahit ikaw nga mismo hindi mo pag-aaksayahan ng oras bilangin kung ilang strands ng buhok meron ka. Pero ganun ka kamahal ni Lord. Na kahit na seemingly unimportant details of our life, alam nya.

Let’s meditate Psalm 139. Favorite chapter ko ‘to.

 ¹ O LORD, You have searched me and known me.

 ² You know my sitting down and my rising up;
         You understand my thought afar off.

Sabi dun, pag-upo mo, pagtayo mo, mga iniisip mo, alam nya lahat. Iniisip mo problema mo? Alam nya yan. Iniisip mo family mo? Alam nya yan.

 ³ You comprehend my path and my lying down,

         And are acquainted with all my ways.

Alam nya yung mga pinagdadaanan mo, ang paghiga mo. He’s acquainted with ALL your ways. Hindi lang yung good times ang alam nya, kahit yung pinakamasakit, pinakanakakalito, pinakanakakainis na pangyayari sa buhay natin, alam nya. ALL of it. LAHAT!

 ⁴ For there is not a word on my tongue,

         But behold, O LORD, You know it altogether.

Alam nya rin yung mga sasabihin mo. May interview ka? You can ask God for wisdom kung anong dapat sabihin. May dapat kang kausapin na tao? Pwede mong ask kay God kung pano ka best na maiintindihan nung tao.

 ⁵ You have hedged me behind and before,

         And laid Your hand upon me.
 ⁶ Such knowledge is too wonderful for me;
         It is high, I cannot attain it.

Congratulations! Isa ka nang certified sandwich. Sabi, God hedged you — sa harap, sa likod, tas may takip pa! Just imagine how protective our God is. So, kahit hindi nya na-promise na smooth sailing ang lahat, na ang lahat eh ok, na lahat eh fine, pero nag-promise sya na he will go through it with you. You are in God’s hands. YOU ARE IN GOD’S HANDS! Say it to yourself repeatedly, I am in God’s hands.

 ⁷ Where can I go from Your Spirit?

         Or where can I flee from Your presence?
 ⁸ If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
         If I make my bed in hell, behold, You are there.
 ⁹ If I take the wings of the morning,
         And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
 ¹⁰ Even there Your hand shall lead me,
         And Your right hand shall hold me.

May pagka-Mike Enriquez si Lord. Kahit saan ka magpunta, HINDI KA NYA TATANTANAN. Imagine, even sa hell, nandun din sya. So kung feeling mo yung sitwasyon mo eh mala-impyerno sa hirap, God is there with you. He said it. His hand shall lead you. Take note, LEAD you. He will not let you go astray. He will not let you on your own. HE WILL LEAD YOU and hindi lang yun, hahawakan ka pa nya. God will go through it with you — side by side.

 ¹¹ If I say, “Surely the darkness shall fall on me,”

         Even the night shall be light about me;
 ¹² Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from You,
         But the night shines as the day;
         The darkness and the light are both alike to You.

Feeling mo ba parang hindi ka napapansin ng Dios? Well guess what, kahit walang kuryente, kita ka pa rin nya. Kahit na napapagkamalan kang isang uling, kita ka pa rin nya. Encouraging ‘to, lalo na sa’kin na may pagka-Negi. Ibig sabihin, hindi ko na kelangan magsuot ng neon orange na damit para lang makita ni Lord sa dilim. Kita nya lahat ng nangyayari. KITA KA NYA!

 ¹³ For You formed my inward parts;

         You covered me in my mother’s womb.

Sya ang nag-shape sa’yo. Ganito ang kaitsurahan ko dahil kay Lord. Hindi aksidente na in-born na hindi ko madiretso ang pinkie finger ko sa kaliwang kamay. Hindi aksidente na mas pandakekok ang biggest toe ko kaysa dun sa sumunod na toe sa kanya. Lahat ng form ko planado. Lahat ‘to sya ang nag-shape.

 ¹⁴ I will praise You, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made;^[b]
         Marvelous are Your works,
         And that my soul knows very well.

I am fearfully and wonderfully made. With trembling hands. What does it mean? God shaped you carefully. Kumbaga, hindi basta-basta. Maingat na maingat ang pagkakagawa sa’yo. Pinag-isipang mabuti. And what more? Sabi, marvelous are God’s works. What does it say about you? Ibig sabihin, you are marvelous. Woohoo! MARVELOUS KA! May kwenta ka. May halaga ka. Isaksak mo yan sa kaibuturan ng puso at isipan mo. MARVELOUS KA!

 ¹⁵ My frame was not hidden from You,
         When I was made in secret,
         And skillfully wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

 ¹⁶ Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed.
         And in Your book they all were written,
         The days fashioned for me,
         When as yet there were none of them.

So yun nga, alam lahat ni Lord. Before ka pa nailuwal ng mother dear mo, nakasulat na ang biography mo. At ang author nun, ang nagsulat ng biography mo eh si Lord. Daily basis. Parang diary. Alam nya yung exact location, exact date to the very second or millisecond or nanosecond (you get the drift) kung kelan ka nadapa nung bata ka pa, at kung ilang beses. Hindi pa man nangyayari, nakasulat na.

 ¹⁷ How precious also are Your thoughts to me, O God!

         How great is the sum of them!
 ¹⁸ If I should count them, they would be more in number than the sand;
         When I awake, I am still with You.

Let’s say each grain of sand represents a moment na iniisip ka ni Lord. Now, if I may ask, kaya mo bang bilangin ang sand? Sobrang in-love sa’yo si Lord. Hindi ka mawaglit sa isip nya. Para kang isang linta na nakakabit palagi sa isipan nya.

 ¹⁹ Oh, that You would slay the wicked, O God!
         Depart from me, therefore, you bloodthirsty men.
 ²⁰ For they speak against You wickedly;
         Your enemies take Your name in vain.
 ²¹ Do I not hate them, O LORD, who hate You?
         And do I not loathe those who rise up against You?
 ²² I hate them with perfect hatred;
         I count them my enemies.
So, love God back. It’s the least we can do, right?

 ²³ Search me, O God, and know my heart;

         Try me, and know my anxieties;
 ²⁴ And see if there is any wicked way in me,
         And lead me in the way everlasting.

My dear brothers and sisters in the Lord, this is our prayer. That God would search our hearts and see if there’s anything wrong with it and teach us the right attitude.

At, alam din nya na sobra kong pinag-isipan ang mga pinagsasabi ko dito kaya inabot ako ng mahigit isang oras sa pagko-compose ng message na ‘to.

This is God’s message for all of us. Let us make him smile. Soar high!
